	 * Hi, and welcome to the http://www.sussex.ac.uk/skillclouds/ skillcontent class.
	 * Basically, it controls what information is sent back when a user clicks on a skill.
	 * This is done through Javascript ajax requests which dynamically update the info on the page.
	 * 
	 * 
	 * The interface skillcontent_interface defines the methods your skillcontent class must have.
	 *  
	 * This skillclouds template uses some static data which we have included in the class skillcontent_local.
	 * 
	 * Of course in Sussex we conect to a database which holds our info, and you probably want to do the same.
	 *  HOW ??
	 *  well, by default in this template your running skillcontent_demo, which has some hardcodded info to display in.
	 *  check the example below called class skillcontent_remote
	 *  as you can see it extends skillcontent, which impliments the skillcontent_interface.
	 *  Add your own methods for fetching your data, and as long as you provide the functions 
	 *  listed in skillcontent_interface for geting the data, your good.
